41 [a]At that time (A)they made a [b]calf and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and were rejoicing in (B)the works of their hands. 42 But God (C)turned away and gave them over to [c]serve the heavenly [d]lights; as it is written in the book of the prophets: ‘(D)You did not offer Me victims and sacrifices (E)for forty years in the wilderness, did you, house of Israel? 43 (F)You also took along the tabernacle of Moloch and the star of your god [e]Rompha, the images which you made to worship. I also will deport you beyond Babylon.’

41 καὶ ἐμοσχοποίησαν ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις καὶ ἀνήγαγον θυσίαν τῷ εἰδώλῳ, καὶ εὐφραίνοντο ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν. 42 ἔστρεψεν δὲ ὁ θεὸς καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς λατρεύειν τῇ στρατιᾷ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καθὼς γέγραπται ἐν βίβλῳ τῶν προφητῶν·

Μὴ σφάγια καὶ θυσίας προσηνέγκατέ μοι ἔτη τεσσεράκοντα ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, οἶκος Ἰσραήλ; 43 καὶ ἀνελάβετε τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ Μολὸχ καὶ τὸ ἄστρον τοῦ [a]θεοῦ [b]Ῥαιφάν, τοὺς τύπους οὓς ἐποιήσατε προσκυνεῖν αὐτοῖς. καὶ μετοικιῶ ὑμᾶς ἐπέκεινα Βαβυλῶνος.
